All three show the wrong menu when I tab to John Schember in the Book details and press the ≡ key.

I did not change any settings, or add any books - and it was a new freshly formatted thumb drive. The new Surface Pro had no add ons or any 3rd party software installed, so it was vanilla too. And Safe mode gave the same result.

Given one my Kiwi collaborators can reproduce, maybe it is a latitudinal (or time zone) phenomena

What exactly do you do?

What I tried:
  • Installed CP 8.2.100. I don't have a clean machine available.
  • Ran it, accepting the defaults for the start up wizard
  • Pressed I to open a detached book details window.
  • Pressed tab twice to get a dashed box around John Schember.
  • Pressed ≡.
The correct menu opened.

Is there *anything* you are doing differently besides the clean machine?
